Frequently asked questions
What is the best AI model in 2026?▾
It depends on your use case, and the answer changes every month. The Podium above ranks models by category (generalists, code, vision, multilingual, open source, local, value) on verified data recomputed at every radar. For an answer tailored to your constraints — budget, hosting, hardware, privacy — use the Finder: three to six questions, and the three models that pass your criteria, with the reasons.
Which AI keeps your data in Europe?▾
Two routes. Self-hosted open-weight models (Mistral, Qwen, Llama, Gemma, DeepSeek…): your data never leaves your infrastructure. Or vendors offering EU data residency — increasingly common, including US vendors through Enterprise plans or European clouds. The “EU hosting available” filter above lists them, and each model card details residency, DPA, transfer, training and retention. GDPR compliance then depends on your processing, not on the model alone.
Which free AI to use?▾
Most major vendors offer a free tier on their consumer interface (claude.ai, chatgpt.com, gemini.google.com, Mistral's Le Chat). For unlimited free use, open-weight models can be self-hosted: the “best local LLM 8 GB / 24 GB” guides tell you which ones run on your machine. The “Free tier” filter above lists every model concerned.
What is Arena Elo and how to interpret it?▾
Arena Elo (LMSYS Chatbot Arena) is a score from blind human comparisons between models. Users vote without knowing which model answered. It's one of the most reliable benchmarks because it reflects real human preference. Reference: 1200 = good, 1300 = very good, 1400+ = world-class.
Open-source vs proprietary: which to choose?▾
Open-source if you want: self-hosting, fine-tuning, data control, no vendor lock-in. Proprietary if you want: maximum performance, no infra management, enterprise support. Many organizations use both: proprietary for the frontier, open-source for volume and sensitive data.
